Chapter 1175 Sands of Time

Using a pinch of fine sand as the casting material, after successfully casting the "Sands of Time", a stream of "negative energy" can be injected into the subject's body.

If the subject is a living creature, the body will age rapidly under the erosion of negative energy, and the specific aging age is proportional to the level of the caster. Counting the increase in "mythical mana", Joan is equivalent to a level 8 arcane spellcaster. The "Sands of Time" released from his hands can instantly age a creature by 40 years.

The aging effect caused by the "Sands of Time" is equivalent to a temporary "curse", which will be automatically eliminated after a few hours, but during the aging period, the subject seems to be really 40 years old. The overall function declines and becomes extraordinarily weak.

If the subject is a naturally short-lived species, such as most wild animals in nature, whose average lifespan is usually less than 40 years old, then "Sands of Time" is equivalent to "instant death" magic for them. Just die of old age, and can't hold on to the moment when the spell fails and the youth is restored.

In today's world of Vales, the average lifespan of a human being is about 50 years old, and the average lifespan of "extraordinary professionals" is longer than that of ordinary people, but those over a hundred years old are rare.

Casting the "Sands of Time" on a strong young warrior can instantly turn him into a gray-haired old man in his sixties. Even if he doesn't die of old age on the spot, it can greatly weaken the opponent's combat effectiveness.

It is conceivable that the curse effect of "Sands of Time" on "Longevity Race" is not so good. For example, if you cast this spell on elves, dwarves, and dragons, you can hardly see any changes after the opponent is recruited. After all, 40 years is like 4 years for humans to them.

If "Sands of Time" is cast on objects, constructs, or physical undead creatures, since such targets have no "lifespan" limit, the effect will no longer be aging at the age level, but a more real organic Sexual aging.

For example, if you release the "Sands of Time" on a stone statue, the stone statue will show obvious weathering and erosion characteristics, as if it has been placed in a natural environment and has withstood wind and rain for forty years.

In the same way, if the "Sands of Time" is cast on a "Stone Golem" or a zombie, it will also be damaged due to the aging of the stone and flesh, becoming decayed and fragile.

In this case, the lethality caused by the "Sands of Time" is proportional to the level of the caster, with a maximum of 10 energy levels. Joan is equivalent to a level 8 spellcaster. The "Sands of Time" cast by him can cause up to 8 levels of aging damage.

In addition to undead creatures with "entities" such as zombies and skeletons, there are also incorporeal undead creatures such as ghosts. Since they don't have a real body, they certainly won't age and decay. The creature is invalid.

"'Construct Disabled' and 'Sands of Time' can both break through magic resistance and can be used to deal with golems, but these two spells also have a common shortcoming, that is, they must touch the target to take effect, which of course will Bringing greater risks." Professor Moriarty smiled at Joan, and continued: "Fortunately, this is not a shortcoming for you, anyway, you can use the 'ghost hand' or 'mage ghost palm' ' Channeling a touch spell like this, there's no need to risk getting close to a golem just to cast it."

"Teacher, are 'Construct Disablement' and 'Sands of Time' also effective on legendary constructs like 'Colossus'?" Joan asked Professor Moriarty for advice.

"If the colossus does not activate the 'anti-magic field', these two spells are of course effective, but they will also be blocked in the 'anti-magic field'." The professor told the truth.

Joan was not surprised by this result, she bowed her head and fell into deep thought.

Professor Moriarty saw his thoughts, and asked with a smile: "Are you thinking, is there any way to crack the 'anti-magic field'?"

Joan nodded frankly, looking forward to the instructor's guidance.

"The 'anti-magic field' is really annoying. There are ways to crack it. You know some, such as the 9th ring 'Mage Disintegration Technique'. If you are lucky, even an artifact can be smashed in one blow. Of course, it can also be used to eliminate the 'anti-magic field'." field'."

"There is also a 9th-level spell that is less popular than 'Mage Disintegration', called 'Call Mana', this magical spell can break away from the magic net, allowing you to be in the 'dead magic zone', 'no magic world' and 'anti-magic world'." Cast a spell not higher than level 4 in the magic field..."

"It's really amazing, but the 9th ring spell is too far away for me."

Qiao An couldn't help but smiled wryly, if he really had the ability to cast 9-level spells, why bother with the "anti-magic field".

"Well, if you think it's unreliable to use 9th-level spells against the 'anti-magic field', you might as well consider those abilities that can be cast without relying on the magic net, such as the monk's 'infuriating', and the psion's'' Abilities' can function normally in the 'anti-magic field'."

Joan shrugged, not knowing how to comment on the new suggestion given by the mentor. As a sorcerer, it is impossible to transfer to a monk to practice "true energy". As for "psychic powers", it is even more out of reach, and I don't even know where to learn it.

Professor Moriarty also seemed to realize that the first two suggestions he gave were not very practical. He stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled strangely.

"Mentor, what good idea have you thought of?" Joan asked curiously.

"Joan, let's go back to the original question. If you want to deal with the Colossus, you don't have to worry about how to crack the 'Anti-Magic Field'. It is completely possible to apply destructive damage to the Colossus outside the radiation range of the 'Anti-Magic Field'." hit."

"But mentor, is there any way to deal a fatal blow to the huge colossus at such a long distance?" Joan asked eagerly.

"Due to the existence of the 'anti-magic field', we don't need to consider lethal spells, but Joan, you have to know that in this era, the most lethal weapons on the battlefield are not spells, but cannons and bombs!"

"Cannons and bombs..."

Joan muttered to himself, naturally recalling what Captain Stone had said to him.

The reason why human colonists were able to gain a firm foothold in the New World, even the frost giants with mythical colossi, did not dare to easily harass the cities and fortresses established by the colonists, did not rely on any powerful spells, but the "magic crystal cannon".

"Joan, if you want to destroy a legendary colossus, the easiest and most feasible way is to get a 'magic train cannon' and fire shells weighing a thousand pounds ten miles away, and continue bombing the colossus until Or drive a magical airship full of aerial bombs and drop heavy bombs on the Colossus from a high altitude, anyway, the Colossus can't fly, and sooner or later it will be blown into a pile of ruins." Professor Moriarty said solemnly explain.
